The ad hoc Committee of Legal Advisers on
Public International Law (CAHDI) held its 20th meeting in
Strasbourg on 12 and 13 September 2000.The abridged report of that meeting is set out in document
CM(2000)184.

At that meeting, the CAHDI, amongst other things,
gave its opinion on Parliamentary Assembly Recommendation 1458 (2000)
towards a uniform interpretation of Council of Europe conventions:
creation of a general judicial authority (see Appendix III to document
CM (2000) 184 corrigendum).The Secretariat points out that at their 707th
meeting (April 2000), the Deputies had decided to forward this
Recommendation for information and any comments to the European Court
of Human Rights, to forward it for opinion to the Partial Agreement on
the European Commission for Democracy through Law and had requested an
opinion from the CAHDI.The
Deputies are therefore invited to take note of the CAHDI opinion and
to resume consideration of the reply to be given to this
Recommendation in the light of the opinions requested.

In addition, the CAHDI had adopted draft specific
terms of reference for 2001-2002 (see Appendix IV to document
CM(2000)184) for approval by the Ministers' Deputies.
